1. What was the first car you ever rode in? I don't know. I think it was a VW Bug.

2. What was the first car you ever owned? Chrysler Cordoba. 1970 something was the year of the car, and that was ANCIENT by the time I got it.

3. What was the first car you ever dreamed of owning? Maza RX7. POSTER PIC They make me smile.

4. Has your dream changed? I still want one, but would grudgingly settle for a black Mustang if I couldn't get my Mazda.

But yeah, still my dream. The first time I saw one I was walking out of work and over to Carlisle's, stopped dead in my tracks and said WOW! Walked over to it to the sound of the Alleluia chorus that started solo and slowly, petted it, looked inside. It was cherry red, black leather interior, enter entire chorus singing alleluia song...by the time I got done kissing the ground it was parked on break was over and I had to get back to work. LOL I've felt cheap every time I've bought one that ISN'T that car! If I ever get one I'll have to apologize to it having those "other" cars first.

1. What was the first car you ever rode in? 1962 Chevy Impala

2. What was the first car you ever owned?1970 Ford Maverick

3. What was the first car you ever dreamed of owning?Datson 260Z

4. Has your dream changed? Oh yeah, big time. First of all Datson is now Nissan and they don't make the 260 Z anymore.
Now I dream of a Chevy Silverado or a Ford F150 Super Crew Cab (trucks). Although if someone handed me a Chevy Corvette I wouldn't turn it away. I also like the Mini Cooper, the Nissan Murano, the Saturn SUV (I don't know what it's called) and the V.W. bug convertable that's coming out soon.

I've only owned 3 cars in my life. The Ford Maverick, a Nissan Sentra and the Honda Accord I drive now.

4. Has your dream changed? Oh yeah. I will probably be a truck man for the rest of my life.

1. What was the first car you ever rode in?
My family had this 1964 Buick Stationwagon. It was a huge battlecruiser that was very heavy and (I am sure) drank gas like water. But it was huge, comfortable, and never broke down once.

2. What was the first car you ever owned?
My first car was a really awful 1985 Ford Escort. It had rusted out and was just holding itself together. But it was mine! It was also a stick-shift, which I love to drive.

3. What was the first car you ever dreamed of owning?
A Triumph TR-6. I have no idea why.

4. Has your dream changed?
More or less, yes. I drive a very nice Plymouth Neon (love that car!), but would like someday to own a huge, gas-guzzling, green party-offending SUV

I want my Flamingo Pink Mustang with the black leather interior back. (sigh)

She was a beauty. Except I got hit twice. Once in the front and once in the back. My daddy said it was the color that made people want to hit it, LOL!

Sorry, Dr. Bob, I had to vent.

Firast car I rode in was probably a chevrolet cparice classic( avocado green)...I have no idea the year. It was my mom's car and I was born in 68. I remember it from my early toddler years...(early 70's,I'm guessing)

My first car was a Mazda 626....light blue with gray cloth interior...I think it was a 1986...I got it new when I went to college.

My dream car back then was probably a Mazda RX-7...I loved those,but my parents wanted something a little more practical....I,also,liked the Honda Preludes.

I never had my dream car,but we have had some nice ones since we have been married. My husband really likes cars,so he is always getting us something nice. Our first car was a little BMW,bronze colored-2 door...it was perfect for a newly married couple and no children. That was my dream car for my early 20's and yes,I got it! My husband spoils me! We have had a few cars and suv's over time.

Now,I have a black 2002 GMC Yukon XL(the big one that seats 8). We love the room! Plus it drives really nicely. My husband drives a 2000 Toyota Land Cruiser. I like the cars we have now,they suit our family and our needs.

I guess my dream car now would be a small audi convertible(just for fun) or a Range Rover big SUV....but,I am really happy with what we have and we will have these for a long time!

I'm still waiting on the 67 Camaro! However, I just recently purchased a new Chevy Suburban. Well... it's new to me anyway. It's a 1995 4x4 1500 LS Model. It has every option except a CD Player. I had a 1984 model Suburban that I drove for about six years. I really loved that old thing. It was a Plain Jane, but it was dependable (even with 360,000 miles on it). I gave it to a friend here at SEBTS who needed a vehicle and he drove it for another two and 1/2 years before it gave up the ghost.
